Apple was hesitant to offer a Bitcoin app, but last year it finally made up its mind to provide excellent apps for the Bitcoin community.

Here are 8 of the most popular Bitcoin apps on iPhone. They are all free and easy to download.

Bitcoin ATM Search Map

If you're looking for a local Bitcoin ATM, especially in a foreign city, this app is very useful. The Coin ATM Radar app includes an up-to-date Bitcoin ATM map that can be used to find Bitcoin ATMs near you. It identifies the Bitcoin ATM closest to you and provides detailed information about the ATM (fees, restrictions, type of Bitcoin ATM) before you arrive, and instructions on how to get there.

You will enjoy financial privacy, self-management of your Bitcoin, and its simple operation design is easy for even older people to master. The Airbitz wallet focuses on improving the user experience. It allows you to pay directly using Bluetooth (BLE) without QR code payment.

Automatically back up encrypted wallets to redundant peer-to-peer cloud servers, and users can also protect the security of funds through one-touch two-factor authentication.

Fold

Although Fold is not yet available as an app for Apple's iOS system, its unique service model is still worth a try. How can you save 20% when buying things at Starbucks? Use Fold to charge $8 in Bitcoin, and you will get $10 in credit at Starbucks! Isn't it great?

BTC Miner

Use BTC Miner to update data in real time wherever you are. You can keep track of your mining data even when you are away from home without having to look after the mining machine.

By tapping the screen, you mine virtual Bitcoins and slowly increase your wealth. Use digital coins to upgrade those crappy furniture into trendy things like entertainment centers and priceless works of art. If you're smart, you'll spend some of your money on investments to help make a lot of money while you're gone. Don't worry, investing isn't boring like real life. How can robot butlers, virtual reality, and holographic relationships be terrible? More than 2,400 user reviews give it an overall rating of 5.0.
